Apple Business: Can't add device or download from App Store

I'm a new administrator of a new Apple Business account. I'm trying to figure out how to set up managed devices, but I can't download any apps from the Mac App Store, including the Apple Configurator. I get this error: "This feature isn't available with the Apple ID you're currently using."


How can I allow my Apple Business Managed Apple ID to use the App Store? There's nothing in the Apple Business portal that shows that the App Store would be disabled.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 14.4

Managed Apple IDs do not support purchasing. Either use the volume portal within ABM and deploy with MDM or have users apply codes acquired through the volume portal or purchase it themselves and get a reimbursement.
